I have! I'm what you call freelancer (I think) and have integrated an Amiga in Ethernet based Networks with Macs and PCs 1.) with TCP/IP and NFS with the Commodore Ehternet-Card and TCP-Soft (I can't remember Commos number-codes, sorry). The mainly Mac-Based Network runs on AppleTalk, which is implemented with a Software called EtherShare on a SUN Sparc-Station. The Amiga goes in via NFS and shares the same Volumes and printerspoolers as the Macs. This one works very, very good and is my favourite. Although the installation was quite hard. The Commo handbook for the TCP-Soft allways pointed to the UNIX-references and send me to the net administrator for "further device". But he couldn't help very much – because that was me at the moment! 2.) with Novell-Client-soft for the Amiga by ACS, distributed by Oxxy, I think. Ehternet-card used was Hydra. This works okay, but I don't like the Novell tools very much. The biggest fault of the environment is the lack of multiple printers on the Amiga side. Although it is able to give printer output from the Amiga prt: to any network printer, you have to totally reconfigure the software, if you want to change the printer. Hope this helps. Feel free to answer any specials, I will answer if I can … over the ocean Jochen, Stuttgart, Germany with AutoPilot
